Appeal for Road Safety as clocks go back and winter time begins

With the clocks due to go back signalling the return to winter time and darker evenings, the Donegal Road Safety Working Group is appealing to all road users especially cyclists and pedestrians to stay safe and be seen. Already this year, 159 people have lost their lives on our roads, an increase of 31 on the same period in 2015. 55 have died on Northern Ireland’s roads. 10 people have tragically lost their lives in Donegal and many more have been seriously injured in road traffic collisions in Ireland.

Always wear a hi-viz jacket to be seen if you are walking, running, cycling or riding a motorbike. Slow down if you are a driver, especially when sharing the road with vulnerable road users. Every driver and passenger has to wear a seat belt, front and rear on every trip and ensure children are properly restrained. Do not drive while being distracted by a mobile phone, never drive while impaired, whether through drink, drugs or driver fatigue.

We all need to be aware too that the changing weather will make for dangerous road conditions so it is vitally important that we all take responsibility for our driving behaviour if we are going to stop the current increase of death and serious injury on our roads. Brian O’Donnell, Road Safety Officer, Donegal County Council
